WOW !!, your GS is very clean. I'm loving the look, the new spoiler will compliment the car well. I still debate on my 3pc

I kind of liked the molded look of the old spoiler...reminds me of an M3 how it's curved up in the back. I like it either way but I think I'm a little partial to the molded 3-piece. The rear lip spoilers I'm not much of a fan of, to me they're so tiny and subtle that the average person looking at the ride might overlook and not give the acknowledgment that evey mod deserves. Just my opinion...beautiful ride though, wish I can grab some wheels like that 1 day!

soooo much cleaner

I remember just seeing your car in a thread somewhere and thinking that spoiler was an eyesore on an otherwise great looking GS.

I'm putting on the Mode Parfume spoiler. I've sold the old one already

We use the dark grey 3m tape at our bodyshop. Its automotive strength. Works great! but the Mode Parfume spoiler came with its own. It looks like the 3m we use but I'm not positive.
